Skyroam Philippines by Big Sky Nation


Three most frequently asked questions I get after every trip:

1. What were your favorite restaurants?
2. Which hotel did you stay at?
3. How did you stay connected?


Most of you already know I always rent a pocket wifi. It is essential for all my trips. I can travel anywhere alone, navigate the most complicated streets, speak any language, conquer the whole wide world, as long as I have internet connection.

For my recent trip, I availed the service of Skyroam through Big Sky Nation.

It was my best friend in Netherlands and Ireland.

Three advantages of using Skyroam Philippines:

1. You have the wifi device with you even before you leave the country. In my past trips, I would rent a pocket wifi from a provider based in my destination and have them send the unit to my hotel. With Big Sky Nation, you can be connected as soon as your plane lands. Just turn on the unit, connect to Skyroam, and connect to the world. Easy peasy.

2. Skyroam works in over 80 countries. You need only one device for all your trips.

3. Skyroam works on a 24-hour cycle, offering more flexibility. You can choose to subscribe today, and not subscribe tomorrow. This was perfect for me as I just switched off the device when I arrived in the UK where I had a local data sim, and turned it back on when I flew out to Ireland.


It was also my saviour when the free wifi during my layover at Doha Airport failed to work.


Thank God for Skyroam!

Big Sky Nation delivers for free to anywhere in Manila. You can rent or buy the Skyroam unit, which can connect up to 5 devices. Unlimited data costs P490/day.

The Delinquent Blogger is Back


Hi guys! Sorry I disappeared for awhile, but I am now back from my 5-week trip with no travel plans coming up soon, so expect to see me here more often. Yay! I miss this space already and I am so excited to start sharing again.

I've put on significant weight, mostly around my waist, but also evident on my cheeks, chins (yes, there's more than two now), arms and thighs. My skin got 5 shades darker, 8 shades darker on my hands, and 10 shades darker on my feet. I make the perfect ad material for United Colors of Benetton. Hahaha. But only because I walked under the sun and shade every single day in 21 new cities, 10 museums, 3 castles and 7 parks. I joined 8 walking tours, enjoyed 106 meals with myself, 2 dinners with company, watched 5 musicals, and gained immeasurable, precious experiences and memories that will last a lifetime.

I hope to document them all here at one point or another, but until I finish sorting out my 8,639 photos and dealing with the mountain of work waiting for me, I'll share with you a photo from each of the places I visited this trip, like a sneak peek of what's to come on this blog. Hopefully soon. :)

To the people who messaged me (some even demanded, haha!) for my itinerary and restaurant recommendations, PLEASE, PATIENCE. Kindly understand that I cannot answer all of you one by one, but will try to put them all here so do check back. If you cannot wait, do a little research on my Instagram posts. Search hashtags depending on your city of interest: #jinlovestoeatamsterdam2016, #jinlovestoeatedinburgh2016, #jinlovestoeatdublin2016, #jinlovestoeatlondon2016, etc, etc, etc...

Thank you and you're welcome!

It's great to be home! ♥
